Oh jeez....

If you're going to have an Easter pageant, have the Easter Bunny visit and pass out candy to kids and have an egg hunt.

If you're going to have a re-creation of the Way of the Cross, use performers portraying the actual characters. How hard is this to figure out? Kids of course will get upset over seeing the Easter Bunny be whipped and beaten.

Common sense, people!!

What next? Giving Santa Claus a ceremonial ass-kicking during candlelight services? Sheesh.

You know, some people haven't a clue about how to present Christ's message. Whipping the Easter Bunny isn't exactly going to win friends.

People need to THINK about the response to ill-chosen actions. I agree that Santa and the Easter Bunny have absolutely nothing to do with Christmas or Easter, but to flog the bunny with kids in the audience borders on child abuse.

This has been on the Pittsburgh local news...honest, one of the people from the church was a ringer for Dana Carvey's 'Church Lady.' You just can't make this stuff up...they (the people doing the show) stepped over the line. Sorry.

Several years ago I had a very devout relative tell me that (I'm not making this up) Santa is really satanic (scramble the letters)...and how I was 'destroying' the true meaning of Christmas for my kids, yadayadayada...just stopped inviting that couple to my house at the holidays. My kids, my house, my rules...

"Performers ...also portrayed a drunken man and a self-mutilating woman, said Jennifer Norelli-Burke"

!!?!! LOL!! What kind of drugs was the writer of this play ON?? Sounds like the most BIZARRE thing I've EVER heard of!
And it was performed in a STADIUM? What NIGHTMARES some of these kids must have suffered! And adults, too.
ClassAction suit for Therapy expenses....

The Glassport Assembly of God is crazy, and needs an attitude adjustment. Maybe next year at a Christmas pageant they will burn Santa Clause at the stake, or something similar.

"The program was for all ages, not just the kids. We wanted to convey that Easter is not just about the Easter bunny, it is about Jesus Christ," Bickerton said.

Performers broke eggs meant for an Easter egg hunt and also portrayed a drunken man and a self-mutilating woman, said Jennifer Norelli-Burke, another parent who saw the show in Glassport, a community about 10 miles southeast of Pittsburgh.

Hmmm, I don't get it. Sounds like an NEA grant.
